It is always cheaper to purchase a locked device from Apple and order its unlock. If you happen to own Apple smartphone you can use different methods to unlock iOS 7. Users who had iOS 5 and iOS 6 gadgets remember R-SIM, Gevey, SAM and UltraSn0w methods that helped to become free from one network and get a chance to use any SIM card across the world.
Do these tools work for iOS 7.0.3 iPhones? Is it possible to unlock for free? We are sure there are a lot of curious customers who got their locked handset from Apple or resellers and now want to get rid of being locked to a single carrier.
Gevey Unlock for iOS 7.x
If you remember this method you sadly can’t use it because there is no Gevey unlock for iOS 7 firmware. You can’t perform such unlock so keep looking for other tools. You can use R-SIM but it is not tested yet.
SAM and UltraSn0w Unlocks for iOS 7.x
No matter how good these tools are you can’t use them for iOS 7 gadgets yet because there is no iOS 7 jailbreak. And SAM activation tool and Ultrasnow methods depend on jailbreaking. You have to wait till hackers present a program capable of tethering or untethering the newest operating system so try to use it later.
iOS 7.x Unlock by IMEI Code

The service is still affordable so you can easily order it and have your AT&T iPhone iOS 7 unlocked within several days. IMEI unlocking service supports all iPhone models / basebands.

Your status will be changed to “unlocked” in the official Apple database preserving your warranty and allowing you to update to next iOS 7 without losing the status.
